On-field umpires Chris Brown and Paul Reiffel, third umpire Michael Gough, and fourth umpire Wayne Knights leveled the charge.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Mark Chapman scored a career-best 132 off 111 balls to guide New Zealand to a 73-run victory in the first ODI at McLean Park. The left-hander's masterful knock, combined with Daryl Mitchell\u2019s gritty 76 and a record-breaking debut fifty by Muhammad Abbas, the fastest-ever by a batter on debut, saw the hosts post an imposing 344.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pakistan, for much of their chase, seemed well on course to overhaul the target. Babar Azam\u2019s fluent 78 and Salman Agha\u2019s explosive fifty put them in dominant position but a dramatic collapse saw them lose seven wickets for just 22 runs, tumbling from 249 for 3 to 271 all out.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Meanwhile, New Zealand will be without Chapman for the second ODI in Hamilton on Wednesday due to a right hamstring injury. He sustained the injury while fielding during the first ODI in Napier, and a subsequent MRI scan revealed a grade one tear, which will require a short period of rehabilitation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Pakistan, for much of their chase, seemed well on course to overhaul the target.
